Pull Request 18616 for star port

[Robert Kennedy]

Earlier today, I submitted a Pull Request to fix and update the star port to 
version 1.6.

see https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/18616

The updated star port works just fine on my Mac running High Sierra.

But it is failing on Big Sur and above according to the buildbot.  But it is 
hard to debug since I see the following error on GitHub instead of a log:

"GitHub Actions has encountered an internal error when running your job."

Strange.  Any ideas on how I can debug?  Or better yet, any ideas on a fix?

Re: Installing zstd CMake files

Thank you for the suggestion.
However, the variant would have to be default, which would still require cmake, 
which could still lead to circular dependency with clang.

Re: Installing zstd CMake files

Would it make sense to make it into a variant, instead of a separate
subport?
